Regents Geometry - 10th grade
At BECA we use the Illustrative Mathematics curriculum. Lessons are designed to be student-centered and inquiry-based. Course materials can be found on the publisher Kendall Hunt’s website here: Illustrative Mathematics
Students use our Google Classroom for assignments, quizzes, and tests. Parents can follow their student’s progress and grades on Jumprope.
